What do you dislike about iolo Search and Recover?

iolo Search and Recover were not capable enough to recover my video after I had formed a large video file. It unspeakably couldn't find it, although it was on the hard drive just a few universes apart which containing the photos. This is a limitation since multimedia elements are vital for many users, and it can be frustrating when they have a lot of them to go through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
